Peggy's Chemo

We just got back from Peggy's chemo evaluation. It was not the news we wanted to hear but we know the Lord is in control. Because the tumor was large and fast-spreading they will administer the most aggressive chemo regimen. She will lose her hair and other side effects are likely. But we are OK, because they are saying this will give her the greatest chance at long term survival. They will surgically imbed a port that will be used to administer her treatments, and they will test her heart prior to beginning. The whole process should last 7 months (including a max radiation regimen after chemo). Thanks so much for all the prayer.
